1 Issue No. 13 April 6 th, 2018 Legislative Overview Today marks the 89 th day of the legislative session. Budget discussions continued this week in small group discussions. April 17 th will mark the 100 th day of the legislative session, however it isn t yet clear whether the legislature will adjourn sine die by this date given the current status of the FY 19 budget. As of today, 204 bills have passed the legislature, with 153 having been signed into law by Governor Ducey. An additional three bills have been vetoed by the Governor this week, bringing the total to five. ACTION ALERT SB 1140: COX Cable License SB 1140 certificates of authority; video service, sponsored by Sen. Gail Griffin (R- Hereford) is awaiting action by the Rules Committee next Monday in the House before proceeding to the Committee of the Whole. SB 1140 was subject to a strike-everything amendment that was adopted by the House Appropriations Committee that contained substantially similar provisions as HB 2579, both of which are sponsored by Representative Jill Norgaard (R-Phoenix). HB 2579 was held from consideration in the Senate Government Committee. The strike-everything amendment and the original bill are both a one-sided, corporate friendly attempt to deregulate cable services in Arizona under the false premise that it will create more competition and increased customer satisfaction. It continues to remove the ability for local government to effectively manage their rights-of-way or ensure cable companies are held accountable to their subscribers and citizens who may have their neighborhoods and rights-of-way disrupted by poor construction practices. The bill continues to prohibit any oversight from local government or the Arizona Corporation Commission; it will also allow cable companies to nullify their existing longterm license agreements with cities and towns. The proponents continue to dismiss our
2 attempts to make this bill work for consumers who subscribe to cable services as well as taxpayers who do not. Please contact your legislators and ask them to oppose this damaging legislation this year and request a more thorough stakeholder process be conducted in the interim to ensure this will not have negative impacts. SB 1387: Home-Based Businesses We continue to oppose the strike everything amendment to SB 1387 regarding home based businesses. The sponsor of the issue and the original bill (HB 2333), Representative Jeff Weninger (R-Chandler), held a small group meeting with representatives of the Goldwater Institute, the Free Enterprise Club, legislators, a City of Phoenix council member and city staff from three communities to see if there is any opportunity for a compromise. According to the city staff who attended, there was good discussion but the parties left the table agreeing to disagree on the basic tenets of the legislation. It would not be surprising to see additional amendments proposed to address some of the concerns raised by the city representatives. While we will analyze any proposal, the fundamental differences we have over the approach to managing the impacts of these businesses that locate in residential areas will make it difficult to reach a compromise that all parties can agree to. Currently, if they truly are no impact businesses, cities and towns are not interfering with them. But, once they have an impact on their neighbors, the city may be asked to remediate. Please continue to work with your neighborhood groups to keep them informed about the negative impacts of this legislation and continue discussing your concerns with your legislators. League Resolution: Streetlight Improvement Districts The second League resolution of the year passed the finish line this week in the legislature and is waiting for the governor s signature. SB 1281 street lighting improvement districts; consolidation, sponsored by Sen. John Kavanagh (R-Fountain Hills) passed the House on Wednesday with a vote of The bill will allow the consolidation of two or more streetlight improvement districts (SLIDs) that have contiguous boundaries, with the consent of the majority of property owners in each of the districts, and allow the addition of new territory into an existing SLID, under certain conditions. Consolidating SLIDs will achieve a more evenly distributed property tax for the payment of energy costs and increase the administrative efficiency for the municipality and the county assessor that, over time, will save taxpayer money.
3 HB 1465: Sober Living Homes; Certification This week SB 1465 sober living homes; certification, sponsored by Sen. Kate Brophy- McGee (R-Phoenix), passed its final vote in the legislature. It now awaits the Governor s signature. The bill creates a statewide licensing system for all sober living homes in the state through the Department of Health Services. Last year, the League adopted a resolution to address the issue of unregulated, poorly-run sober living homes through state or federal action. This came about due to years of frustration with bad actors in the industry that chose to take advantage of the growing opioid epidemic by providing cheap, unhealthy and unsupervised housing for recovering alcohol and drug addicts. As a result, many of these homes degraded into abusive environments where residents used drugs and created nuisance and public safety problems for the surrounding neighborhoods. Unregulated sober living homes, particularly in California, Florida and recently Arizona, have proven to be detrimental not just to the safety and welfare of neighborhoods but also to the sober home residents themselves who need a healthy, supportive environment to continue their sobriety. SB 1465 provides for a robust statewide licensing system in Arizona to protect our neighbors in recovery, as well as our neighborhoods, from negligent and abusive sober housing providers. HB 2371: Food Truck Licensing This week the Senate approved amendments to HB 2371 mobile food vendors; state licensure, sponsored by Representative Kevin Payne (R-Peoria) that addressed the outstanding issues raised by cities and towns. The underlying bill is intended to provide a statewide, streamlined process for health and food safety inspections, licensing of food truck operations and address the varying regulations adopted by counties, cities and towns. The amendments adopted by the Senate this week allows for restrictions of food truck operations in areas where this business activity may not be appropriate, such as residential areas; provides reasonable restrictions on parking, including parking duration and occupying areas with insufficient parking capacity; provides a streamlined process for required fire inspections of food trucks; and provides online access of required food truck license applications. Food trucks have grown in popularity in recent years and are seen at many public events in the state. After hearing the concerns and the challenges faced by food truck owners navigating the varying rules, it became clear that local and state regulations have not kept pace. HB 2371 is the first step in easing the regulatory burden for these small businesses to operate successfully in our communities. We appreciate Representative Payne for bringing this issue to our attention and look forward to working on continued reforms.
4 The bill as amended passed the Senate with a vote of It was transmitted back to the House where it waits for procedural action and a final vote before it will be transmitted to the governor. HB 2532: Occupational Licensing While there is no evidence that cities and towns are misusing their current authority related to the issuance of occupational licenses, bills have been introduced in the last two sessions which would have placed limitations on municipal governments to regulate certain professions. Over the interim we worked with the proponents of these bills to see if there was some middle ground that would protect our authority to address concerns within our communities and provide assurances that we were not making our license provisions overly burdensome for individuals or small businesses. The concept that we agreed on is to create a sunrise process for any new occupational licenses. This would require notice to the public and a council hearing before imposing any new licensure requirements. Additionally, a city or town would have to revisit these licenses every five years to determine whether they were still necessary. Finally, a city or town would have to review all of their existing licenses within five years of the enactment of the legislation. This amendment was put onto HB 2532 occupational regulation; municipalities; counties; prohibition, sponsored by Rep. Kevin Payne (R-Peoria) in the Senate this week. We greatly appreciate that Representative Payne worked with us to find a compromise. Even though this bill will require municipalities to go through some additional process to adopt and renew these licenses, it is reasonable to periodically review these requirements to determine whether they are having the results the city or town intended. Reminder: League Policy Committees League Policy Committees will resume in a few weeks. Participation on any of the five policy committees are your opportunity to be involved in policy development resulting in League Resolutions for cities and towns.
